My Summer 2012 Playlist



Happy Summer everybody! When I think of summer, I think about pools, bathing suits, ice cream, the beach, camping, and spending time with my friends! But what another important thing I consider is what songs to put on my summer playlist. What are the songs that put me in the summer mood, the ones I want to listen to when I'm tanning on my pool deck or driving in my car. After going through my Itunes music, here are a few songs that made it to my Summer 2012 playlist:
1. Long Hot Summer-Keith Urban. I'm pretty sure this came out in September 2011, but it's definitely a must on my playlist.
2. Country Girl (Shake it for Me)-Luke Bryan. Luke Bryan has a lot of good summer songs, like Drunk on You, but I have yet to purchase it. This song was my summer favorite for last year, and it's so good I just had to put it on this years playlist as well.
3. Georgia Peaches- Lauren Alaina. Okay, so country music is definitely a must on my playlist. This song, which is Lauren Alaina's first hit single, is so much fun and really catchy.
4. Sweet Disposition-the Temper Trap. If anyone has ever seen 500 Days of Summer (cough cough, one of my favorite movies) this song is played in the movie and the movie trailer as well. It's an alternative song, which is not always my favorite kind of music, but it's so relaxing I love listening to it, especially while I'm tanning at the beach.
5. Good Girls Go Bad- Cobra Starship feat. Leighton Meester. Okay, so this song has been on my summer playlist ever since it came out. It honestly is the perfect party song, it just reminds me of summer.
6. California Gurls- Katy Perry. A song about California and beaches, need I say more?
7. Africa-Toto. So the reason this song reminds me of summer is because I work at an amusement park, where they play this song on rides all the time.
8.My Weakness- Kris Allen. This is probably one of my most played songs on my playlist. The whistling and lyrics remind me of summer love.
9. Here We Go Again- Demi Lovato. This song came out during the summer of 2009, which is also when I saw Demi in concert. It was probably one of the best concerts I've ever been to, so listening Here We Go Again reminds me of good times.
10. If I Ruled the World- Big Time Rush. I really love this song from Big Time Rush, it came out last summer and I like it so much it had to be on this summer's playlist.

I have some songs from Brad Paisley and Selena Gomez, as well as more from Kris Allen and Keith Urban. So if you're having trouble trying to find songs for your summer playlist, feel free to check out the songs on mine.

Happy Listening!
